By tracing the interactions and negotiations of six Basel Mission doctors, who practised on the Gold Coast and in Cameroon from 1885 to 1914, the author demonstrates how notions of religious purity, scientific health and colonial cleanliness came together in the making of hygiene during the age of High Imperialism. The heyday of evangelical medical missions abroad coincided with the emergence of tropical medicine as a scientific discipline during what became known as the Scramble for Africa. This book reveals that these projects were intertwined and that hygiene played an important role in all three of them. While most historians have examined modern hygiene as a European, bourgeois and scientific phenomenon, the author highlights both the colonial and the religious fabric of hygiene, which continues to shape our understanding of purity, health and cleanliness to this day.. | | 出版日期 | Book‘‘‘‘‘‘‘‘ 2023 | | 关键词 | Switzerland; Hygiene; Cleaniness; Colonial medicine; Medical missionaries; West African history; Cameroon; | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-27128-1 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-27130-4 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-27128-1Series ISSN 2635-1633 Series E-ISSN 2635-1641 | | issn_series | 2635-1633 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2023 |
